Overview
Direct emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases occur both from fossil fuel combustion for process heat and from chemical processes (e.g. calcination in cement manufacture). Indirect emissions come from e.g. the use of electricity.
Tackling emissions in the industrial sector involves a case-by-case analysis of each industrial sector. Here information is collected on this topic.
Data
European Union
EU per country statistics of emissions and energy balances in each sector are available.
Process heat
By sector
Iron and steel
Possibility of reduction with hydrogen instead of coke being explored in HYBRIT and SALCOS projects.
Cement
Only option to reduce cement demand and CCU/S?
Concrete also absorbs CO2 from air.
Chemicals
Pulp and paper
Studies
Studies of reducing emissions in the industrial sector.
